Flywheels

Engineered in-house, our torque plate is designed to provide a robust and uniform clamping surface between the flywheel and crankshaft across a range of BMW engine applications. Compatible with both factory and Turner performance flywheels, it helps prevent surface galling and ensures consistent torque distribution during installation.

Features:

Prevents galling and wear at the crankshaft-to-flywheel interface under high clamping loads
Promotes even load distribution for improved fastener integrity and long-term reliability
Compatible with a variety of BMW flywheel setups, including OEM and aftermarket configurations
Design:

Precision-machined from cold rolled steel for high strength and dimensional accuracy
Heat treated to 32 HRC for increased surface hardness and wear resistance
Clear zinc anodized for enhanced corrosion protection
Laser-etched Turner logo
Ideal for performance builds and drivetrain refreshes, this torque plate is a critical component for maintaining proper flywheel installation and maximizing long-term durability across multiple BMW platforms.

Lightweight flywheel for quicker, effortless revs that improve throttle response and free up lost horsepower. Tested and approved by our engineering team at Turner Motorsport. Tested in early, late, ETA and IS model E30s for confirmed fitment.

Introducing our Turner Flywheel: an ingenious blend of lightweight design, rich features, and remarkable strength! Crafted from 4140 HT Steel, this flywheel is precision-machined from a solid piece, ensuring unmatched durability. By strategically trimming excess weight from its original design, we've achieved a significant reduction in weight, giving new life to your M20 engine. With upgraded efficiency, your M20 can now swiftly spin to high RPMs, unleashing the full power and prowess of this formidable engine. Our flywheel features a ring gear profile compatible with all starters, alongside a reference tab tailored for early cars equipped with bellhousing-mounted sensor crank position detection.

Do you have an early model transmission with the crank sensors on the bellhousing? Maybe you have a late 325is with the crank sensor on the front of the engine, or maybe you have a 1988 super ETA. No matter which E30 model you have, our flywheel is the perfect choice for you.

During the engineering process we encountered the full spectrum of M20 and flywheel combinations. Early cars with bellhousing crank sensors, late cars with front mounting crank sensors and even a super ETA. On this adventure we found both early and late single mass flywheels and even the dual mass that we thought for sure was just a myth. At first we were hesitant that we could make one flywheel to fit them all but with the persistence of our engineering team(fleet of E30 enthusiasts) we can proudly say our M20 flywheel does in fact fit all engine and transmission applications you can think of.

Features and benefits:

Fits early and late models with M20
Fits shallow and deep bellhousing transmissions
Ring gear suited for both starters (P# 12411726504 + 12411361874)
Heavier than other lightweight flywheels, lighter than OEM, its like the Goldie Locks of flywheels - its just right
Reference pin for bellhousing crank sensor
Strong Single-Piece 4140 HT Steel construction
Designed to be used with factory and OE clutches
